Bear Cat 5" Commercial Chipper/Shredders
Long term use (and profitability) requires an investment in a chipper/shredder with enough power to handle branches up to 5" in diameter and the ability to shred leaves and small debris.
That's why the Bear Cat 5" models have a large group of dedicated owners who've come to depend on the smooth stamina available only with this Bear Cat's 125-pound dynamically-balanced rotor and 4 reversible chipper blades.
A 20 x 30 inch loading hopper and 12" shredder opening will let you shred leaves, branches and debris as large as 1" in diameter at a nonstop pace. The diamond-shaped chute allows you to get irregular branches into the chipper.
An adjustable tongue and axle come on this handy highway-towable chipper/shredder, for shifting weight to the tongue when equipped with either of the optional blower units.
For the ultimate yard cleanup, attach the optional vacuum hose and 2-speed blower and significantly reduce your time on the job.
